This DVD is much better than the video that came with my Yamaha guitar and it contains all the information a beginner needs to know to get started playing: parts of the guitar, tuning, basic guitar maintenance, how to interpret tablature, popular chords, strumming, fingerpicking, and more advanced stuff like hammer-ons and pull-offs. You'll be playing basic chords in a matter of minutes, and after learning a few you'll follow along while a progression is played on-screen. This part is difficult and will take a bit of practice. In the end you'll have a good foundation for continuing with more advanced instruction.

I ordered this video thinking it would be a video dvd, but it was a audio dvd. I could hear the words but no picture. Kind of hard to learn guitar with no pictures...

I ordered this CD in hopes of experiencing a good intro to beginning acoustic guitar. What I received, however, was a CD that directed me to a website where, try as I may, I could NOT locate any video instruction as advertised. Perhaps I received a VERY different CD and it was packaged as "Acoustic Guitar Basics" but for my expectations, it was completely useless. I looked for hidden menu choices, but there were none. I only had two choices once the CD opened...proceed to website and exit. If anyone can enlighten me, feel free.
